Yes, still up for this.  YHA in Cambridge is available in November atm.  I reckon we could get at least 10 people along.

Hello, I've just registered :)  I didn't realise there was a UK MMM forum.  I would be up for this, however I'm in the Highlands so a bit of a trek to get to most places.  The Highlands are very nice though and may fit the cheap (or even free) camping bill :)

I would like to to join in any festivities.

Based in East Midlands but happy to travel...even up to the lovely Highlands!

It would be very interesting to meet some like-minded folk and share wisdom!

Don’t mind camping but also happy to spring for some YHA/budget accommodation with a roof and a bed.

Dreams & Discoveries (who started this thread) seems to no longer post here, now that she has a (very good) blog of her own :-)

So, someone else needs to take a lead to organise (quickly takes a step back...)

That’s interesting. Thanks cerat0n1a. Her posts were always very informative as well as frequent. I was a bit worried when she suddenly stopped posting. Good to know she is ok. Do you have a link to the blog please cerat0n1a?

I might be interested in attending if it was in a place I could get to without ruining my travel budget, and on a weekend or something so it wouldn't ruin my earnings. I'm based in north west England.

(Definitely not interested in running the thing. Just putting that out there.)

The fact that she never posted a link on here herself makes me think that I probably ought not to.

I'm east midlands based, and don't do camping.

This same topic seems to be coming up on the UK Mustachians facebook group. If it goes anywhere I'll post here.

Basically I'd love to meet UK people doing this, as there can't be many of us. Whether it is a 1 day meetup or a multi day event, that's fine either way!

Sorry to resurrect an old thread. Looking through this it seems everyone was dead set on a camping or hostelling trip, but that seems like a big first step.

What about just a simple meetup? Would anyone be interested in meeting, maybe one down south if there's already a good Yorkshire meet up going?

There's a London meet-up that is arranged by Barney aka The Escape Artist and I think Ken from The Humble Penny. Last one was yesterday.

I'll post the details for the next one here once details are available.

That's great, thank you! Was that for the documentary showing? Just had a look.

It'd be nice to make use of the summer weather and meet in a park or something if we can!

Yes, yesterday was the documentary showing.

Previous meet ups have been in beer gardens. I'm going to try and get to the next one, hope to see you there!  : )

ooh thanks for the link! I may be able to make that.

Though I do reserve the right to grumble about the logic behind a financial independence meet up at a pub in edinburgh during the festival season.

Hi, just seen that the venue for the Edinburgh meet up has been changed.

There has also been a Manchester meet up arranged. I saw the details on The Escape Artist's blog.
